I was really amazed at the way people responded to him, children and adults alike. He was held in Ghandi-like reverence. Over the years he's helped an awful lot of people. The reality today is there are thousands of people who can say if it wasn't for him, their lives would be different. This is a very unique and special person. He's going to be missed and remembered.
